< अय्यूब 32 >

1 त्‍यसैले यी तिन जना मानिसले अय्यूबलाई जवाफ दिन छाडे किनभने आफ्‍नो दृष्‍टिमा तिनले आफूलाई धर्मी ठहराए ।
So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he [was] righteous in his own eyes.
2 त्यसपछि रामको परिवारको बुजी बारकेलका छोरा एलीहूलाई रिस उठ्यो । तिनलाई अय्यूबको विरुद्धमा रिस उठेको थियो, किनकि तिनले परमेश्‍वरभन्दा पनि आफैलाई धर्मी ठहराएका थिए ।
Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the kindred of Ram: against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified himself rather than God.
3 तिन जना मित्रको विरुद्धमा पनि एलीहूलाई रिस उठ्यो किनकि तिनीहरूले अय्यूबलाई जवाफ दिन सकेका थिएनन्, र पनि तिनीहरूले अय्यूबलाई दोषी ठहराएका थिए ।
Also against his three friends was his wrath kindled, because they had found no answer, and [yet] had condemned Job.
4 अरू मानिसहरू एलीहूभन्दा उमेरमा पाका भएका हुनाले तिनले अय्यूबसित बोल्‍नलाई पर्खिरहेका थिए ।
Now Elihu had waited till Job had spoken because they [were] older than he.
5 तापनि यी तिन जना मानिसका मुखमा एलीहूले जवाफ नदेखेपछि तिनलाई रिस उठ्यो ।
When Elihu saw that [there was] no answer in the mouth of [these] three men, then his wrath was kindled.
6 तब बुजी बारकेलका छोरा एलीहू बोले र यसो भने, “म जवान छु, र तपाईंहरू निकै पाका हुनुहुन्छ । त्यसैले म चुप लागें, र मेरो विचार तपाईंहरूलाई भन्‍ने आँट गरिनँ ।
And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I [am] young, and ye [are] very old; wherefore I was afraid, and durst not show you my opinion.
7 मैले भनें, “बुढा-पाकाले बोल्नुपर्छ । धेरै वर्ष बिताएकाहरूले बुद्धि सिकाउनुपर्छ ।
I said, Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom.
8 तर मानिसमा एउटा आत्मा हुन्छ । सर्वशक्तिमान्‌को सासले उसलाई सुझबुझ दिन्छ ।
But [there is] a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding.
9 महान् मानिसहरू मात्र बुद्धिमान् हुँदैनन्, न त पाका मानिसहरूले मात्र न्यायलाई बुझ्छन् ।
Great men are not [always] wise: neither do the aged understand judgment.
10 यसैकारण म तपाईंहरूलाई भन्दछु, 'मेरो कुरा सुन्‍नुहोस् । म पनि तपाईंहरूलाई आफ्‍नो ज्ञान भन्‍नेछु ।’
Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will show my opinion.
11 हेर्नुहोस्, मैले तपाईंहरूका कुरा सुनें । तपाईंहरूले के भन्‍ने भनी विचार गरिरहँदा मैले तपाईंका बहसहरू सुनें ।
Behold, I waited for your words; I gave ear to your reasons, whilst ye searched out what to say.
12 वास्तवमा मैले ध्यान दिएर तपाईंहरूका कुरा सुनें, तर तपाईंहरूमध्ये एक जनाले पनि अय्यूबलाई विश्‍वस्त पार्न, अर्थात् तिनको वचनलाई जवाफ दिन सक्‍नुभएन ।
Yes, I attended to you, and behold, [there was] none of you that convinced Job, [or] that answered his words:
13 'हामीले बुद्धि भेट्टाएका छौं,' नभन्‍नलाई होसियार हुनुहोस् । अय्यूबलाई परमेश्‍वरले नै हराउनुपर्छ । मानिसले यसो गर्न सक्दैन ।
Lest ye should say, We have found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man.
14 किनकि अय्यूबले आफ्ना वचनहरू मेरो विरुद्धमा बोलेका छैनन् । त्यसैले तपाईंहरूकै जवाफले म तिनलाई जवाफ दिनेछैनँ ।
Now he hath not directed [his] words against me: neither will I answer him with your speeches.
15 यी तिन जना मानिसका बोली बन्‍द भएका छन् । तिनीहरूले फेरि अय्यूबलाई जवाई दिन सक्दैनन् । तिनीहरूसँगत बोल्‍नलाई एउटै शब्द पनि छैन ।
They were amazed, they answered no more: they left off speaking.
16 तिनीहरू बोल्‍दैनन्, तिनीहरू चूपचाप खडा छन्, अनि कुनै जवाफ दिंदैनन् भनेर के म पर्खिरहनू?
When I had waited, (for they spoke not, but stood still, [and] answered no more; )
17 अहँ, म पनि आफ्‍नो तर्फबाट जवाफ दिनेछु । म पनि तिनीहरूलाई आफ्‍नो ज्ञान भन्‍नेछु ।
[I said], I will answer also my part, I also will show my opinion.
18 किनकि मसँग जवाफ धेरै छन् । मभित्र भएको आत्माले मलाई बाध्य पार्छ ।
For I am full of matter, the spirit within me constraineth me.
19 मेरो छाती फुल्‍दै गरेको दाखमद्यझैं भएको छ जसको प्‍वाल छैन । नयाँ मशकझैं यो फुट्नलाई तयार छ ।
Behold, my belly [is] as wine [which] hath no vent; it is ready to burst like new bottles.
20 म ताजा हुन सकूँ भनेर म बोल्नेछु । म आफ्‍नो ओठ खोल्नेछु, र बोल्नेछु ।
I will speak, that I may be refreshed: I will open my lips and answer.
21 म पक्षपात गर्नेछैनँ, न त कुनै मानिसलाई आदरको दर्जा नै दिनेछु ।
Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person, neither let me give flattering titles to man.
22 किनकि त्‍यस्तो दर्जा कसरी दिने हो म जान्‍दिनँ । मैले त्यसो गरें भने, मेरा सृष्‍टिकर्ताले मलाई चाँडै लैजानुहुन्‍छ ।
For I know not to give flattering titles; [in so doing], my Maker would soon take me away.
